Claudia took Moore's dinner to the room after showing Victoria to her room. She yawned tiredly as she placed the food on the bedside stool. She has been preparing for the presentation all day so she didn't get any rest. "You look so tired and sick, Is everything okay?." Moore asked in a concerned tone. "Everything is perfectly fine, are you sure the contract will be mine tomorrow?." She asked anxiously, all she cares about is how to get the contract. Moore dropped his curtleries and faced her. "You will surely get the contract if you try your best with the presentation. There is no way I would be able to talk to my boss if you didn't impress him to a certain level he could trust your company with." He stated and shoved a spoonful of food into his mouth. Claudia was quiet for a while, Moore raised his head and looked at her. "Have you not been preparing?." He asked with a raised brow. "I have been preparing, infact, I'm well prepared, which means I'm ready for tomorrow. Please rem
Moore brought out his phone and dialed a number, the person picked at the second ring."Good morning Giovanni." Justin greeted from the other end."I want to have a serious conversation with you today." He informed in a firm voice, "Have I done something wrong? Please forgive me." He apologized without even knowing what he did."No you didn't offend me, but I want to see you for something very important, you must not inform anybody about it and if you did you will be punished severely for it.""Alright sir, where did you want us to meet and the time?." "I will send you the address 30 minutes before the appointed time." He answered and hung up the call. "I will be a step ahead of them, can't believe I have enemies among them." He thought and shook his head in disappointment.Gilbert heard some voices outside of his office, he stepped out to check, only for him to see Moore walking away and Jedidiah sobbing. He looked around to be sure no one was seeing her, rushed out to her when he
"Yes you are right." Moore replied, he wanted to say another word but stopped when he saw that Camila wasn't listening to him at all."Camila...Cam... Camila." He called but it seems she was in deep thoughts. Moore wondered why she could be in deep thought that she didn't hear him."C...a ...m...I...l...a." He spelled out with a scream, She jolted off her thoughts and gave out a heavy sigh."How did you soak yourself in thought to the extent that I called you countless times before you could be brought back. If there is anything bothering you, please don't hesitate to share it with me." Moore stated in a concerned tone."I'm really sorry, I was just imagining fictional things." She rushed the words and went to sit down."You are funny, watching a lot of movies and reading a lot of books must have been the reason behind it." Moore joked and laughed at her."Stop mocking me, it's not my fault. At Least, that's the only thing that keeps me busy apart from work." "Your life is as simple
The ten minute recess elapsed so fast, the competitors were all on their seats. "Welcome back, the decision has been made. Everybody did their possible best but only one person will be awarded the contract today. Don't give up, there are more contracts coming up. Miss Camila will come on stage to show us who will get the contract." Gilbert addressed in a calm voice, A round of applause followed the exit of his speech. Camila stood up gently from her seat and strolled out. She projected the projector on the white board. "Thank you all for having so much trust in us, everybody wants the contract to be theirs unfortunately, it can only be for one person. We looked into the last presentation and found out that humans can't decide who can fit in perfectly for the contract, so we created a website and a detector which will pick the best presentation." She paused and observed the atmosphere, all attention was all on her. "The person with the highest rate is Miss Claudia, her presentatio
The sadness in Claudia's mind disappeared when she drove into the mansion."Everybody will be proud of me, especially my grandfather." She screamed happily in the car.She opened the door and came out with a big smile. It has been a long time since she felt so happy and excited.Luckily for her, her grandfather was home already. She decided to spoil herself before going home to break the news to everyone."Good evening family." She greeted delightfully, Georgia looked at her daughter, and saw her happy mood. She started guessing what could have happened."How are you? Did you get the contract?." Georgia asked with a smile."Yes I got the contract." She shouted and jumped on her mother."Congratulations my daughter, I know you can do it and you did it. I'm so proud of you my darling." Georgia shouted and hugged her daughter tightly, they disengaged from the hug."Thank you for your trust. I was scared before prominent personalities showed up at the venue I gave up all hope but when the
"I'm sorry for coming late, I was caught up in traffic." Justin apologized as he stepped in. Moore looked up to him and dropped his glass of wine on the table. "You are pardoned." "Thank you Giovanni." He appreciated it with a wide smile and sat down. "How much did you trust Gilbert and Jedidiah?." He asked straight away. "I trust them with my life, I can do anything just to prove them right." He answered innocently, Moore looked at him intensively to check whether he was just telling a lie. "Wow, that means you have a lot of trust in them. Do you think they could betray you someday?." Moore asked again, Justin was reluctant to answer the question. "They can't betray me, why are you asking those questions?." "I think you shouldn't trust people so much especially when they can easily harm you, for example ; your niece got married to the guy who was engaged with someone when they were young and she is back to make sure the guy is hers no matter what." Moore stated and sat back wa
Moore bowed his head in weakness, he was expecting death but something in him is telling him to do something. With all the strength left in him, he stood up with a lot of force with his hands yanking off the guys from his body. They were all surprised at what he did, they weren't expecting it at all.The guy who looked like the boss walked up to him in anger. "Who do you think you are?." He asked in a deep and angry tone, his eyes became reddened, Moore scoffed, wiping off the blood on his lips. Moore was really looking for a way to get the guy to fight with him because he knew that the others will flee if their boss get beaten."I am the nightmare you will always plead not to have." Moore responded boldly, the guy bursted into laughter and pocketed his two hands."Do you know who you are standing in front of?." He asked with a deep frown."Why won't I? Are you not the guy who always go around with your men because you can't fight? I understand that you are powerless but why did you h
Claudia opened her eyes slowly the rays of light coming from the cottons struck her eyes, she closed then back immediately. She turned to the other side of the bed and open them. Just then, a strong headache hit her hard which sent her back on the bed. She placed her hand on her temple, they were boiling. "I know you will have headache after waking up, that's why I prepared you some lime juice. Trust me, it will ease the pain for a while." Moore said and walked up to her with the lime juice. "Thank you so much." She appreciated, collected and drank out of it. "You are always welcome, the next thing for you to do is to take your bath. I have prepared your favourite bath." He informed excitedly, she looked at him in surprise. "Why are you behaving so nice?." "You did well yesterday, so I decided to appreciate you this morning. Even though, I don't have a big appreciation gift, I think doing this from the depth of my heart is enough." He explained. Claudia's heart melted, the memor
